The native cocktails, one of the big bonuses of the first A Weekend In The Gardens shows, will return with all-new recipes for season two.
The four cocktails have been curated by Shaun Byrne of Good Measure Consultants.
“Following on from the success of the native cocktails at the inaugural event, I wanted to build on this and offer a few different native cocktails,” Shaun says. “I took a long stroll through the Gardens to gather inspiration points. For this event there is quite a floral theme going through the list, which is perfect given we are in the thick of spring.
“Although there are some new cocktails on offer, there is one which remains the same – the Bush Coffee. This was so successful last year, we’d potentially see a riot if we didn’t offer it again! After all, it is Melbourne!”
The November drinks list features:
Bush Coffee
Vodka, wattle seed syrup, cold brew coffee and coconut shavings
Native Spritz
Gin, lemon myrtle & rosella shrub, quinquina, soda and gum leaves
Tiki Roundhouse
Rum, native lime, ginger, soda with fresh pineapple, mint and absinthe
Apple Iced Tea
Whisky, tea, muntrie (native apple) syrup, rhubarb foam and crumbled biscuits
